Megan and I met back in March of 2016. I was in my first year of nursing school and she was finishing her degree in early childhood studies. Our first date was at Starbucks, and I made sure to buy her coffee so she knew it was a date. I was floored at how cute she was, and went home and told my roommates how I had met this girl completely out of my league. Apparently she went home and did the same. Seven months later we moved into our first apartment together. Over the next two years we grew our family to add our cat, Leo, our dog, Koda, and our snake, Sally. I found out I got a job in Eureka at a hospital and we made the decision to move up. A couple weeks before we moved, Megan wanted to go spend one last evening in downtown Petaluma and go to one of our favorite restaurants. It had been raining all day, and during a brief period of sunlight, she took me down to the river and got down on one knee. We are so excited to celebrate our love with our friends and family this August. We hope to see you at the wedding! Much love, Jacqueline and Megan
